Prayer Fuel

During the month of July, we are joining with those leading intercession and prayer in the 110 least-reached cities in Africa and Asia.

“Faithful Lord, we thank You for Zawadi and the ministry of unceasing prayer she is helping to build in Mombasa, Kenya. As she gathers others to seek You with desire rather than mere duty, guide their teams to wait for You like watchmen waiting for the morning. Awaken hunger for Your presence in the church.

According to Psalm 130:6 — “My soul longs for the Lord more than watchmen long for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning” — we ask You to deepen a hunger and longing for Jesus in Mombasa. Strengthen Zawadi and the believers around her to wait for You with love. Let prayer become more than a task. Make it the breath of a church that expects dawn. Bring light into families, coastal communities, and hidden places of need. Let many see the mercy of Christ rise over them. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”

110 City General Focus for July is Malaysia and Indonesia

Today: BANDUNG, Indonesia

I live in Bandung, the capital of West Java, surrounded by green hills and the hum of city life. Indonesia, my homeland, stretches across thousands of islands—each unique, each alive with its own language and culture. Our national motto, “Unity in Diversity,” feels both beautiful and fragile here. More than 300 ethnic groups and over 600 languages fill this archipelago with color and complexity, yet faith often divides where diversity could unite.

In my city, the Sunda people form the heartbeat of society. They are warm, devoted, and deeply rooted in Islam, holding tightly to faith and tradition. But beneath that devotion lies a quiet searching—questions about peace, purpose, and truth. Persecution has grown stronger across Indonesia; churches are watched, believers are threatened, and some are attacked. Still, the Church stands, shining brighter under pressure.

Even as terrorist cells rise, so too does courage. I’ve seen followers of Jesus love their neighbors boldly, serve the poor, and share hope that no law can silence. Here in Bandung, among the Sunda, I believe the harvest is near. The same God who calmed the seas of Galilee can calm the spiritual storms of Indonesia—and bring revival across these islands.

Prayer for Today:

Pray for believers in Bandung to bring unity across ethnic and religious divides through the power of the Gospel. (John 17:21)
